Our Spooktacular Halloween

We had a busy Halloween weekend. Carter and Hunter once again wanted to be Mario and Luigi, but Graham didn't want anything to do with wearing a costume. He had the choice of Toad (from Mario Bros.), a dog, a bat, or a monkey. He didn't want to wear ANYTHING other than blue jeans!

We went trick-or-treating on historic Glenwood Terrace in Anniston Saturday afternoon and then stopped by Grandma Jackie's and Grandpa Jim's house for some yummy supper. Sunday we went to the fall festival at our church. The kids had a great time and got WAY too much candy.

Cookie Exchange

The first Saturday of December, I hosted my first Cookie Exchange. I had been wanting to do this for years, but things were always too busy. I decided to go ahead and do it anyway this year and it was fun! Lots of ladies attended and the cookies were great! Maybe I will do it again...

Easter 2009

Carter for President

So, Saturday afternoon Carter decided he was running for President. This idea came from the book he recently purchased at the school book fair "Spongebob for President". He decided to make flyers saying "Carter for Prezident" and put them all around the house. I went upstairs to fold the laundry and came back downstairs to find his flyer creation station empty. I went outside and saw flyers all around the porch, but no sign of Carter. I called his name inside the house, I called his name outside the house and then I caught a glimpse of him halfway down the driveway. I thought he was heading down the driveway, but he was actually coming back up. I said "What on earth are you doing?" and he said I went to Mr. James' house to ask him to vote for me and he gave me a check. I almost passed out! I thought he had conned our neighbor into giving him a campaing donation. After he made it back to the top of the hill he showed me his notebook where he had writte...
